Australian Government disintegrity
The top ranks of the Australian government are making more embarrassing blunders. The head of the Australian Federal Police would have us believe “Top Cop defends Bali 9 tip off” [27-Oct-05] that there is no contradiction between tipping off Indonesian police about Australia’s Bali 9 drug importers and its strong opposition to Indonesia’s death penalty. They could have argued that Indonesia has a right to its own sovereign laws, except for the precedence it set with its criticism of the Indonesian judiciary in the case of Muslim cleric Abu Bakar Bashir for his involvement in the Bali bomb blast. In last case the Australian government applied pressure for a longer incarceration. Of course this contradiction is easily resolved by recognizing that the AFP and Australian government have different policies. As an Australian overseas, I’m just wondering which policy applies to me.
